4 Operation
3.4 Safety before use
WARNING:
Danger of injury! Check appliance and power cord before each use. A
damaged appliance must never be used.
ATTENTION:
Before connecting the plug to the power supply, make sure that the
voltage stated on the type plate matches the voltage of your plug socket.
Only use plug sockets with a grounding contact.
ATTENTION:
Before starting cleaning, check whether the particular surface to be
cleaned is suitable for steam cleaning. Always follow the cleaning
recommendations of the material manufacturers. The steam cleaner is
definitely not suitable for use on uncoated wooden floors, soft plastics
and polished furniture. Cold Glass surfaces can shatter as a result of
heat shock.
ATTENTION:
Operate the device only with the water tank filled. Although the
appliance is fitted with an overheating protection, running it without
water would shorten its service life.

NOTE:
The steam cleaner has an overheating protection device. It will switch off
automatically if overheated (e. g. due to an empty water tank). If this
happens, pull the mains plug and refill the water tank chapter 3.2,
„Filling the water tank". Wait for about 45 minutes. Once the steam
cleaner has cooled down you can switch it on again.
NOTE:
Have a cotton or microfibre cloth ready for follow-up wiping. This will
absorb moisture if excess steam has been used. It will also pick up the
softened dirt.
NOTE:
It is recommended to first sweep or vacuum-clean floors to remove
loose dirt before using the steam cleaner on them.
NOTE:
Provide adequate ventilation during steam cleaning. Otherwise, the
increased humidity after cleaning could, in the worst case, cause the
formation of mould. Preferably operate the steam cleaner on warm days
when the air can absorb more moisture without shedding it as
condensation.
4 Operation
1. Check that the water tank is full. If not, fill it (chapter 3.2, „Filling the
water tank").
2. Insert the mains plug into a socket with ground/safety contact (Fig. 10/
A).
3. Switch on the appliance with the on/off switch (Fig. 10/B). Both control
lights are lit (Fig. 10/C). The appliance is now heating up.
4. Wait for about 10 minutes until the steam ready indicator goes out
(Fig. 10/D). The appliance is now ready for operation.
NOTE:
In order to maintain an adequate steam supply, the heating of the
appliance and thus the steam ready indicator switch on from time to
time.
5. Unlatch the child protection device by pushing it to the back (Fig. 11/B).
6. You can now pull the steam trigger on the steam pistol (Fig. 11/C).
- A few drops of water will be ejected first.
- Collect these if you want to avoid puddles.
- After a short while, a steam jet will appear.
- The steam flow will stop as soon as you release the steam trigger.
- You can also regulate steam power and cleaning effect by varying the
distance to the surface to be cleaned.

WARNING:
Risk of scalding! Always point the steam jet downwards towards the
surface to be cleaned. Never lay the steam pistol on its side when it's
running. When interrupting your work, always switch off the appliance
and use up any remaining steam. When interrupting work to refill the
water tank or to change attachments also pull the plug from the mains
socket and engage the child safety device by pushing it forwards
(Fig. 11/A).
WARNING:
Danger of falling! Always be especially careful when cleaning smooth
floors as well as steps and stairs! Only work with moderate steam
B pressure when cleaning smooth floors, otherwise a moisture film will be
left on the floor. Using less steam also ensures quicker drying and
reduces the risk of slipping.
C
ATTENTION:
Do not operate the appliance on one spot for a prolonged time. Keep
moving the appliance back and forth to loosen dirt on a larger area.
Otherwise there will be increased danger of damaging the surface to be
cleaned.
